Tip: Read the recipe well, and start preparing the rice, fish and tajen in the same time to finish faster.

Fish Directions

1. Marinate the fish over night in all the mentioned ingredients
2. In a preheated pan, grill the fish on high heat until golden
3. Cover, reduce the heat and leave for 6 minutes or until cooked through

Rice Directions

1. In a large heated pan, place 1 tbsp olive oil and the 2 onions cut into julienne. Keep stirring until the onions are caramel brown and partially roasted.
2. Remove from heat
3. In a pot, pour 1 tbsp olive oil and 1 chopped onion, cook until golden

6. Add half of the caramelized Julienne onions, stir well.

Tajen Directions

6. Add the pine nuts and serve, aside, in a small bowl 

Syadyeh takes a long time to cook,  and if I was to follow my grandma's recipe I would never dream of finishing on time. That is why I decided to make my own recipe. Do try it and tell me what you think.
